Joe Biden has emerged as the frontrunner among Democrats, who overwhelmingly support the former vice president more than Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
According to a new CNN/SRSS poll released Tuesday morning, 39 percent of Democrats surveyed favor Biden while Sanders drew support of 15 percent of Democrats—a 24-point difference.
Biden and Sanders are the only two Democratic candidates whose support was in the double digits, the poll showed.
The next candidates to pull in the strongest numbers were Sen. Elizabeth Warren at 8 percent and South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 7 percent. Former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke had 6 percent support, followed by Sen. Kamala Harris at 5 percent. According to CNN, the other 17 Democratic candidates surveyed only received 2 percent support or less.
Biden's lead extends across most every major demographic or political group, though it shrinks some among younger voters (31% Biden to 19% Sanders among those under age 45), liberals (32% Biden to 19% Sanders) and whites (29% Biden to 15% Sanders among white voters).Still, only about a third of potential Democratic voters with a preference in the race (36%) say they will definitely back the candidate they currently support, 64% say they could still change their minds. Those who say they are locked in are more apt to back Biden: 50% in that group support him, 21% Sanders, 8% Warren.
Biden and Buttigieg were the only candidates to show significant gains from CNN's March survey, with the former receiving an 11-point surge in support and the latter posting a 6 percent increase.
The survey was conducted between April 25-28 and has a margin of error for Democratic-leaning voters of 5.9 percentage points.
In a head to head to debate Bernie would beat Biden.

I guess you didn’t watch any of the democrap debates in 2016. Bernie was the biggest wimp in debating history. Even Trump said so.
Not that it’s saying much, but Biden wiped the floor with Paul Ryan when they debated.
Biden looked like a male Hillary yesterday. Totally burned out. I doubt he can make it through the primaries.
Democrats do not want to give another woman a chance to be Prez?
Men , step aside and let only the women and Mayor Pete run.
I will not disagree with anything. I don’t think we’ve seen the beginning of anything with regards to Mueller, the previous occupant of the White House and a few other folks. But, I think she’ll be able to wash her hands of a lot of this, or at least try. If it starts to lead back to her, she’ll fall too ill for them to do anything or someone will fall on a sword for her.
Started out as opposition research. Okay. It was the previous admin’s FBI, CIA, DOJ, etc that weaponized it, not hers, as far as we know, for NOW.
If her fingerprints are on it and the right person gets in the interview room and spills the beans, she’s fried chicken.
And she may be done, as far as you, me and a significant portion of the United States population is concerned, but there are still millions that think she walks on water. When you have operatives like Media Matters, David Brock, and a whole host of others that can control the narrative, I wouldn’t put it past her to try one more time. And think of all the people she’s made promises to. And her ego, is just too damn big. She’s still strutting around keeping her name in the game or at least trying to.
I’m not saying she’ll win, by any stretch. I’m just thinking that she isn’t out of the picture, completely, yet.
Just remember folks, this is NOT about Bernie or Biden or any other demoncrat candidate...
“Superior Minds” of the democratic party just want to beat Donald Trump.
Whoever wins they assume will be controlled by THEM. They KNOW they can control Old Slow Creepy Joe.
The press will not allow gaffs, groping or truth about Ukrainian bribes to get in the way if the superior minds tell them not to report it.
Biden wiped the floor with Paul Ryan when they debated.

When was that? I can’t find that.
Hillary is playing the “Second Mouse”, let the other mice get trapped so she can swoop in and “take the cheese”.
2012 VP Debate
May the dems shred each other in public blood baths.
Creepy Joe...
Slow Joe...
Old slow Joe...
Old Creepy Joe...
Sleepy Joe...
Sleepy Creepy Joe...
Creepy Old Slow Joe...
So many to use!
Hopefully, it shows that even typical Democrats are not quite ready for “socialist” aka communist idiots and would rather have a gaffe prone groper as their leader.
Jo Bidn has indeed increased his lead over Sanders, but has reached only a 11% lead (not 24% by this fake poll) according to the RCP national poll average, and the only reason for the 11% increase was because BECAUSE of the fake CNN poll in the average: the rest of the polls don’t show much budge from recently:
Sorry. I misread what you posted (even though you posted in plain text black and white).
I was looking for Sanders/Ryan debate, since my original post was questioning Sanders’ debating ability.
But yes, Biden vs Ryan. Ryan was definitely not smarter than a 5th grader in that debate. That was a debacle. The entire 2012 campaign was a debacle, has Trump himself has pointed out.
Thanks for posting that long schedule of tears for the rats in their primaries this year!
Why, is Mayor Pete a woman?
He DOES have a husband...
Which one is the receiver and which is the passer?
Which one is the pitcher and which is the catcher?
Or do the alternate?
wait until the CNN debate, I have a hunch Biden will be well prepared, seemingly as if he knew the questions in advance.
Joe Mondale Biden will be flanked by Bernie on the left and Howard Schultz on the right.
“Hillary is playing the “Second Mouse”, let the other mice get trapped so she can swoop in and “take the cheese”.”
not gonna happen: hillary is persona non grata with the big Dem donors who are all still royally pissed off at her for wasting their billions by getting beat by a neophyte game show host ...
That will change when all of the other pretenders get exposed, then they will be begging Hillary to run.
